stella mccartney lingerie spring/summer 2012. softly feminine, but never too far from the minimalist aesthetic mccartney is known for. soft cup bras in pastel hues are the kind that will happily put themselves on display under sheer layers; lace-trimmed slips or triangle bras & tap pants in floral prints border loungewear; a racer-back bra in lace is a marriage of sporty & luxurious.

mcq fall/winter 2012. volume & strict waist cinching has become part of the mcq aesthetic. that strict femininity that hides yet celebrates the female form, here in hem lengths that dust the knees & silhouettes that border on military heaviness. if done wrong, such cuts could lose their appeal, but keeping the waist tight ensures that never happens. thigh-high lace-up boots, chain detail on wide belts, long leather gloves & dark, rich furs take shapes that border on victorian yet decidedly tough. tartan pieces, lace blouses & floral embroidery add youthfulness to the more mature, full-volume dresses & structured coats.
